Real Clear Religion

India pays couples to put off having children Interesting to see which religions/castes go for the cash .. can you say demographic implosion. My hunch is that Muslims won't go for the short term cash and will play the long term game. Christians may be a wildcard but they're known to be a more orthodox than their Western brothers.

Biblical Evidence for Catholicism: St. Augustine's Acceptance of the Seven Catholic Sacraments I'm confused what is the antithesis? That St Augustine was not a Roman Catholic? That the Roman Catholic Church wasn't the first publisher of the Bible .. that the Bible is not the master document of the Roman Catholic church? I'm being coy. I know there are Protestants who like to get beyond the televangelists, past Billy Graham, slip past Martin Lucifer and try to dabble in patristic sources. In doing so, they lay claim to St. Augustine (usually dropping the "St." when they refer to him.) Hence the counter attack .. St. Augustine needs to be asserted to be Roman Catholic and those sacraments need to be proven Biblical in nature .. a silly exercise really.
